    Sexlink hens

    I have older sexlink hens that are 4-5 years old and are crossed between leghorn and a Rhode Island Red. Up until this year I have always collected brown eggs. This spring a couple have started laying white eggs? Must be converting back to the leghorn side? Has anyone else experienced this?

    Poopy egg??

    I find that pine shavings work much better than hay or straw. I have hens that like to sleep in the nest, but with the shavings it is easily cleaned out
